More than 1000 Attending School While
Suffering the Pangs of Hunger.
Gable Special to New York Worlo.
Inquiry recently instituted into the condition
of the Vienna poor attending the elementary
schools resulted in appalling disclosures Up
ward Of 1000 children suffering the pangs
of hunger some of them being on tho verge Of
starvation. A long list of heartrending cases
came to light and no doubt was left that not a
few of the unfortunate little ones had died of
inantion Their emaciated appearance amply
testified to the veracity Of ths statements per-
suasvely extracted from them, which revealed
a condition of hopeless destitution unprece-
dented in the pauper records of this capital.
This intelligence, heralded abroad through the
local press, at once made the starving school
children the idols of the hour.
The children, when cross-examined by a re-
lief committee, corroboratsd the evidence al
ready taken. 1t transpired that their principal
food consisted Of dry bread and OCCASIONALLY
little weak soup coffee. It is quite true that
some of them affirmed that they were habitu-
ally given glass of spirits stie the cravings of
their appetite, aud to keep out the cold One
boy positively stated that his father was good
man. and that when he could not give him any,
thing TO eat he let him drink as much gin as he
liked, and this why he often went to school
drunk. The parents OF these starving children
are the most part day iaborers. though some un-
doubtedly belong to a less respectable class.
AS the work of relieving the children
was taken in hand subscriptions were opened at
the editorial Offices of the metropolitan press. Sell
dom has appeal to public charity been more
readily and more generously responded to. The
poorer classes have largely contributed. The
popular newspapers full of advertisements
from people who cannot spare much money, but
who offer to give one or two children their daily
food. All the hotel and restaurant keepers are
feeding a certain number of the schildren every
day.

NEW YORK, Oct 25.-A morning paper says

of his forthcoming book On the Industries of
the South" reporter found him. last night.
and asked him what the Republicans proposed
to do in defense Of the tariff when Congress re-
convened. He said, among other things: 1T
rests with the Democratic majority of tho House
to take the initiative in this matter The Presi-
dent, in view of his duty to offer such sucees-
tions as he may have to Congress. will be the
method By which such action by the Fiftieth
Congress will be invited. To prepare himself,
Mr.. Cleveland has held series of conferences
with such of the leaders of his party he cared
to talk with. It is said that the result Of these
conferences will no only be the embodiment Of
sug gestions in the Presidents message to Con-
gress, but tho submission OF q detailed
scheme of revenue revision. The popular
impression appears to be that that wing
OF the Democratic party that is called protec-
tionist has not been invited to these conferences
at Oakview, and that it will not ne prepared to
indorse the conclusions which Presdeat Cleve-
land has accepted. How this may Se l do not
know. I have heard from many sources that
though Mr.. Carlisle would not permit the question
of the repeal Of the tobacco taxes to be submitted
the last session, he and his friends have decided
since then not only to permit it to be submitted,
but to favor the repeal am told. however,
that they will not consent the abolition OF any
other internal tax. II the repeal Of the tobacco
tax shai1 be submitted a separate PROPOSE
tion, the Republicans will undou btedly accept it.
for that reduction alone would bring the revenue
receipts down about $28, 900, 600 in ono year If,
however, the proposition be connected with ore
to reduce customs duties ia the hope of thereby
curtailine the amount OF current revenue, the
measure will be resisted by the Republicans.
The Repu blcan attitude on the question might
be thus sunni ufed up to it's free-trade opponents.
The object to be obtained is a reduction OF rev.
enue. and this is the only means OF averting .
commercial aud financial crisis W hch may be
much greater in it's tornado like effects than
those of 1887 and 1857 is the magnitude Of
the manufacturing. financial and other interests
OF the country greater. Yet you propose TO
